The lady above is not the one that had the demon. The lady I am with above is the one we threw the birthday party for that i talked about in a previous post. I wanted to post a picture of her. She is a sweetheart and I love her. She says she has adopted me as one of her children.
Since i started the outreach program at my church in January I have been taking groups to the nursing home bringing them individual birdfeeders to hang outside their windows. Then we go inside and check on them and minister to them. On this particular Saturday our church was involved in another event so i wasn’t able to get a group together. But i decided i wanted to go alone anyways. When I got there i went to visit one of the ladies that we have been visiting for a while. In the nursing homes you very often run into people with dementia & alzheimer’s. But sometimes you run into people that deal with demonic oppression or possession. Well, this particular lady that i went to visit i had suspected at times may be dealing with demonic activity. She would randomly scream things and make weird noises while during conversation. Which, in nursing homes is actually quite common and it happens a lot. But i sensed a different spirit on her and some of the things she would scream made me suspect that maybe it was demonic and not just mental. However, i could never tell for sure and i didn’t want to start casting a demon out of her if she was just suffering from dementia.
But my suspicions were confirmed last time i visited her. I was alone and as i walked in she immediately started begging me to take her home. She’s normally much more stable than that. I wanted to pray for her to try and comfort her and calm her down. And she normally really likes for me to pray for her. Well, as i went to pray for her she got a very different look on her face and her whole demeanor changed and she told me she didn’t want me to pray for her that day. I asked why. She said, “I don’t believe in prayers anymore.” Then suddenly her demeanor switched back to normal and she started saying, “Please pray for me, Please, i want you to pray for me.” So i went to pray for her.
This is when the demon manifested. Her whole face contorted into this awful face of pure hate and anger. Her lips curled and her eyebrows went down and she began to scream at me in a way that is not like her, “Get out of her now! Leave! Get out!” Ms. Doris’ finger went up to her mouth and she began shushing herself going “Shhhh, shh, shhh, sh.” After she was back to herself she had a look of fear in her eyes and she started crying. She reached up and grabbed my arms and begged me, “Please don’t leave, please don’t leave! If you leave i’ll die, they’ll kill me. And i’m not ready to die.” I started to comfort her and pray for her. I asked her if she had made Jesus the Lord of her life. Again her demeanor changed and she told me, “No. leave.” Then she would come back to herself. I kept trying to get her to say the name Jesus. She was never able to. But i was able to tell her that Jesus could rescue her if she would just make Jesus her lord. And she heard me.
I bound the demon in Jesus name and rebuked it in the name of Jesus. However, a deliverance usually isn’t complete until you can get the person suffering from the possession to themselves proclaim Jesus as their Lord and rebuke the demon themselves. They have to break their “agreement” with the demon. I don’t think that i took Ms. Doris through the whole deliverance process. After i prayed she did calm down and stopped screaming, but unfortunately i’m not sure that i got to the root of the problem. But i am going back again and this time i am taking a team with me to fully free her.
Please pray for her. Her name is Ms. Doris and she is a very sweet lady. Pray for wisdom for me in how to handle it and for clarity and understanding. And proclaim her deliverance in Jesus name.
Thank you.
